We are a leading multi-national lottery operator with a market-leading presence in several countries. In the UK, we operate the National Lottery with a 10-year licence that started in 2024.

We strive to create one of the UK's most inclusive organisations, where people can bring their best selves to work every day, for the benefit of good causes.

Our purpose and values are at the heart of everything we do. We aim to build a bigger, better, and safer National Lottery that delivers more money to good causes.

Role Purpose:

  • First line: Functional Management & Staff

  • Trust and Gaming
  • Treasury
  • Finance Operations
  • Commercial Finance
  • Strategy and Insight
  • Financial Accounting
  • Procurement

You will also have a dotted line into the Head of Enterprise Risk & Oversight, while engaging with the Internal audit team and wider central Assurance function to enable an aligned and integrated assurance approach.

  • Evolve and further strengthen the Assurance framework for Finance and Trust
  • Implement and report on effective monitoring controls and procedures
  • Support the Finance Director and wider Finance team to ensure the effective implementation, execution, and monitoring of the National Lottery licence conditions, Matters to be protected, Trust Deed, and Fund Protection policies
  • Ensure Finance operates within agreed risk appetites while complying with legal and regulatory requirements
  • Provide assurance through regular reporting, updates, KPIs, and dashboards to the Finance Director and CFO and his reports, and various Governance committees
  • Evaluate and enhance Finance's self-assessment control framework and risk register, identifying areas for continuous improvement
  • Act as the primary interface between the Finance function and the central Assurance function (Risk, Compliance, Governance, Regulatory affairs)
Key Measures of Success:

As a Finance and Trust Assurance Leader, you will be measured on:

  • Operating with integrity and staying independent
  • Assurance activities supported by adequate documentation, peer reviews, and quality checks
  • Finance team risk register up to date and has appropriate sign-off as scheduled
  • Finance team self-assessment activity up to date and completed as scheduled
  • Delivery of activity to support Outcomes-Based Decision Making (OBDM) and wider business assurance requirements
  • Funds Protection Forum governed and managed in line with best practice
  • No surprises – all assurance activities, plans, and projects communicated clearly and in a timely manner with effective progress tracking and risk monitoring
  • Controls, compliance, and assurance culture embedded in the psyche of finance colleagues
